Slow Down

Calm the nervous system.

  
I have been pretty health conscious since my thirties.
It is truly something I have been passionate about.
From childhood trauma to menopause, 
 health and healing has been important to me.
Spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical.
I did not realize until recently how much
all of those areas are affected greatly by stress and
an overactive nervous system.
It's the why in "why is this not working for me?"
Our bodies can't heal, when our nervous system is all wonky.
This is so important!
It will be a game changer for me.
This week I have been focusing on deliberate breath work.
Taking mini breath breaks.
Try it.
Take a slow deep breath in through your nose...
and release slowly through your mouth.
When done releasing...release just a little more...
and a little more.
Then breathe in a big fresh breath, and repeat.

You can do it anywhere, and anytime.
Healing happens...
one step and one breath at a time.

" Stay in the moment. The practice of staying present will heal you.
Obsessing about how the future will turn out creates anxiety.
Replaying broken scenarios from the past causes anger and sadness.
Stay here in this moment."

(...and remember to breathe.)
